Mexican Beef Chili with Lime Crema
To cut costs without skimping on flavor, we use cheap cuts of stew beef (chuck or round roasts will do) instead of the pricier ground beef normally used in chili. The slow-and-low heat of your slow cooker easily breaks down the tough cuts into tender, melt-in-your-mouth chunks of savory meat.
Sloppy Open-Faced Tacos
This Tex-Mex spin on sloppy joes is sure to become a weeknight family favorite.
Moroccan Beef, Chickpea & Sweet Potato Stew
Fragrantly spiced beef with chickpeas and sweet potatoes make for a satisfying, protein-rich meal. Dried apricots add a punch of sweetness to balance the richness of this dish.
Pineapple Ginger Meatballs
Sweet pineapple plays beautifully with these mouthwatering meatballs, browned to perfection on the outside and tender and meaty inside.
Beef Short Ribs
These slow-simmered ribs pair nicely with mashed sweet or regular potatoes.
Kale-Stuffed Flank Steak
Butterflied flank steak rolled around a flavorful kale and feta filling makes an impressive presentation for dinner guests, and only you’ll know how easy it was to pull off. Searing the rolls before simmering them in a white wine and tomato sauce ensures a juicy result.
Spicy Shredded Beef Tacos with Pineapple Salsa
Savory spiced beef is topped with a sweet pineapple salsa in these irresistible, finger-licking-good tacos.
Moroccan-Spiced Pot Roast with Leeks & Winter Squash
A slow-and-low cooking method ensures this extra-lean roast cooks up perfectly tender and moist, while a warm mix of exotic spices and fruity pomegranate imparts a satisfying flavor profile. Customize your meal by substituting the veggies called for here with whatever winter squash or root vegetables you have on hand, such as carrots, parsnips or even cooking pumpkins like the Cinderella, Baby Bear or Sugar Pie varieties.
